Bug Description
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
Hi,
I'm using Openoffice.org 2.4.1~rc2-1ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy AMD64.
In the special character selection window ("Insert", "Special Character"), the displayed table of characters contains gaps, i.e. Unicode character 2248 is displayed correctly. The next character displayed right next to the previous should of course be 2249. But this is not always the case. E.g. the next character as in my attached screenshot is in fact 2260! This means that several characters are not displayed at all.
Selecting a special subset of Unicode characters in the top right selection box doesn't change the table of characters. The Gaps still exist, and other characters from a different subset are still displayed instead.
Additionally, some characters show up only in form of a small rectangle, but only in the table on the left. They are displayed correctly on the right side of the window.
A screenshot is available under: http://
This affects many important mathematical characters useful in all language versions.
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I've confirmed this using openoffice.org version 2.4.1-1ubuntu1 from Hardy -proposed.
